v5 dash in a v4
this must have been asked a thousand times but whats involved in fitting a v5 dash in a v4?
Regards Ed |
I thought the v4 already came with the facelift dash.
|
It does. I think the OP means the clocks/instruments?
if so, there's a fair bit of wiring/rewiring needed, as the plugs are different and the wires don't go to the same places:( You used to be able to buy a loom, but I doubt it now. |
Surely you would just source a v4 clock set, got to be plenty knocking about second hand and they look the same once fitted if I'm not mistaken.
What's the reason for fitting op? |
mine is a 96, v4 i want the later dash with the top cubby hole etc
|
MY96 will be v3 , preface lift dash is also v3 ,
V4 onward is face lifted , aside from the clocks which are more than likely mechical drive and will need a bit of work to sort to electronic speedo , the dashes physically bolt to different points at the windscreen , you will need to either cut and relocate the tabs that are there at the minute or get the tabs from a donor car and weld or rivet them in the correct location , I believe the heater controls are operated differently between the two types of dash also, so you may need matrix also tho I'm not 100% on that |
Plus the part of the dash that comes closest to the doorcards is different in the two models, so new doorcards...and then the switches are different...:(
